IPC: A61P19/04
Filed: 1994-03-04
Abstract: Kits and compositions are provided for the treatment and repair of defects in the cartilage or bone of humans and other animals as in full-thickness defects in joints. A matrix having pores large enough to allow cells to populate the matrix and to form blood vessels is used to fill the defect in bone. The matrix filling the bone defect contains an angiogenic factor and also contains an osteogenic factor in an appropriate delivery system. A matrix having pores sufficiently large to allow cartilage repair cells to populate the matrix is used to fill a defect in cartilage to induce cartilage formation. The matrix filling the defect in cartilage contains a proliferation agent and also contains a transforming factor in an appropriate delivery system. The matrix may also contain a chemotactic agent to attract cartilage repair cells. In a full-thickness defect, a membrane is used to separate the defect sites in bone and cartilage, which is sealed to the cartilage-bone-junction and which prevents blood vessels and associated cells from penetrating from one site to the other.

Title: Biological sensors
IPC: G01N21/75
Filed: 1988-06-06
Abstract: A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor in which the phenomenon of long-range surface plasmon resonance is used to develop a highly sensitive detector for use in biological, biochemical or general chemical testing. The sensor comprises a laminar structure consisting of a high refractive index glass block (10), a membrane (11) of dielectric material, a thin metal layer (13), and a sensitive layer (14). A sample (15) to be tested is brought into contact with the sensitive layer (14). The refractive index of the dielectric layer and that of the layer (14/15) on the opposite side of the metallic layer (13) should be equal, or nearly so, and the refractive index of the glass block (10) should be higher than this so that total internal reflection takes place at the interface between the block (10) and the membrane (11). Light (1) from a laser source (8) is totally internally reflected at this interface, and the strength of the reflected beam (4) is monitored by a light detector (9). Provided conditions are correct, long-range SPR will take place which will sensitively alter the strength of beam (4) in dependence upon the progress of the reaction between the sensitive layer (14) and sample (15).
